When Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman join forces--not to mention Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, and The Flash--they form the Justice League. Based on the hit graphic novel by Darwyn Cooke, this animated feature plumbs the origins of the DC Comics powerhouse. The adventure starts when the human race is threatened by a powerful creature, and only the combined forces of these superheroes can stop it. But can they overcome their differences? Instilling a Cold War atmosphere into this action-packed story adds a modern touch to THE NEW FRONTIER. Providing voices for the super group is an all-star cast that includes David Boreanaz, Lucy Lawless, Kyle MacLachlan, Kyra Sedgwick, Brooke Shields, Neil Patrick Harris, and Jeremy Sisto.
